[Q] I have a problem in the camera 4K mode - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys
When I use put 4k z3 degree temperature rise significantly, then the camera closes in compulsory
Just use the camera in 4K two minutes
In manual mode 10 minutes
In automatic mode and 10 minutes too
Do you have a solution to it?
No. Model is D6616
I'm sorry,,, I use google translation

Its a known thing, almost every reviewer also mentions it stopping at around ~10 mins due to overheating, so don't worry you did not get a defective unit.
Only solution right now, is if you live in a cold area it will take longer before it stops, but basically the answer is no.

More than 10 seconds long exposure

Anyway to take a photo with more than 10 seconds exposure? tweaking the stock camera or using other app... i tried an older version of camera fv-5 with 20 seconds long exposure but it only allows 2.1 MP (1920x1080) but the latest version limits that long exposure to only 10 seconds with full resolution (12MP - 4032x3024).
Regards!
I don´t even know how to do 10s :/

Only available in pro mode.
i would love to see if someone can port one of the LG flagship's camera app like G4, V10 or G5
Would interesst me too, would be Great to capture the night Sky! I already hat good results when stacking the Images, but more time with lower iso would be Great to have.
I tried 10 second+ exposures with my Note 7 before I sent it back. They didn't turn out great. I was camping and it was super dark.
I used a tripod and a phone mount and used a Long Exposure app from the play store to get longer than 10 seconds. And pro mode with the stock app for a 10 second exposure.
10 Seconds would be cool in a city to capture moving traffic but it's not long enough to capture the sky. Long than 10 seconds creates so much noise the photo isn't usable.

if i recall correctly, the long exposure apps from the app store lock the resolution at 1080p and so the noise may be more pronounced. It would definitely be interested in seeing an update to push pass 10 seconds for more options.

Phone idle/screen cast problem on Motorola Style

Hi folks, I recently ran into a couple of problems with my new Style. At home I have aeroplane mode on, location off, even the sim card removed, yet phone idle is still using battery. Not a great chunk, maybe 3-4%, but it shouldn't be doing that right?! Mobile data etc is all off.
The second issue is that when casting to my Samsung TV the picture is totally off, it's as if the refresh rate isn't right and there's screen tearing all over. Even on a static image there's movement as the pixels update. The TV info tells me that the phone is casting at 720p 30hz. I would normally just use MHL/Slimport instead but this phone doesn't support it.
I've not run into either of these problems with my Nexus 5 or 10 and I've Googled til my thumbs ache, but I can't find a solution or even mention of these specific problems. Can any of you fine folks here help me out?

Lg 360 camera stops recording 20 minutes in

Just got a lg 360 camera and having a strange issue, it stops recording exactly 20 minutes in, this seems like an artificial limitation, but I can not find how to stop it.
I am using a 64gb sd card and the file size is 2.4gb (I realize on afat32 4gb will be the limit but expected it to simply create a new file at that point.)
Extrapolating out and rounding up that is 7.5gb an hour so the 3 hour long events I planed to record would take 22.5gb so disk space is not an issue....just this darn 20 artificial limit.
Any solutions (seems a common issue from searches but cannot find any fixes)

This question is not really new. see here > https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67111950&postcount=4
a solution is ,as i know, not available until now.
Tip: the record time seems to be a little longer, if you reduce the resolution.

But who wants to do that?

Yeah since these will be viewed mainly in vr, resolution matters a lot more then usual...damn, gonna have to rig up a timer and hit record again every 20 minutes, sometimes developers make some absolutely bonkers decisions, personally i would of just had it auto create a new file and let the user decide when to hit stop.
(and that thread did come up in my searches i but i did not want to necro it)
Well today was the big test and tbh the camera failed it.
Ok so the first recording stopped after 20 minutes, no surprise there as i was expecting it.
I restarted the recording and it stopped after 12 minutes
I restarted the recording and it stopped after 4 minutes
I restarted the recording and it stopped after 2 minutes!
It was rather warm to the touch (even though the room we were recording in was fairly cold)
i let it call down for a couple of minutes and tried again... it stopped after 9 minutes so yep it was over heating
I tried to record again...22 seconds
I gave it about 10 minutes to cool down and tried again, it lasted 19 minutes
Then 1 minute recording time
I gave it 2 minutes cool down and it lasted 7 minutes
then 2 minutes recording time
I gave it another 2 minutes cool down and it lasted 8 minutes
This is where the battery failed
Now this was in a large, not chilly but not warm room, with plenty of space around it. full recording length about an hour 45 ish all done with the wifi turned off on the camera to conserve battery on 360 degree mode full resolution (assuming manual record uses full resolution) total file size pre-converting (which using thier desktop app is taking forever!) 11.6gb
to say i am not impressed is an understatement.
somebody else has reported a notification requester after restarting his record again. Recording was discontinued because overheating of cpu. See here for more information about that: post 12!
-> http://360camerasforums.com/index.php?/topic/1079-record-while-charging/
This seems to be a health protection of LG 360 cam firmware. Stop of recordings after 20 min or 4GB of size (because the capability of FAT32)
as you can see, it should be the same circumstance with Samsung Gear

Yeah i get the feeling its early adopter symptoms and not something that is easily fixed (no amount of firmware updates is going to add cooling...unless it blows a capacitor and makes a hole, which may cause some unwanted side effects)
My 11gb 1 hour 35 minute 2k(not as impressive as that sounds, remember thats 2k for 360 degree so in reality much lower res then hd?) video is uploading to youtube, at the minute i can not share the link as one of my mates has asked the video remain unlisted until he has seen it.
It was a bleep to join the files together, everything i tried either did not work or wanted money, in the end i had to use a trial version of adobe premier cc 2017 (no idea what ill do next week, make a new adobe account most likely lol(in my defense if it was a one off charge i would pay it...£20 a month...nope dont have that kind of money) anyway, this took an hour and a half to join the files, but i loaded the result into the lg 360 desktop player and it worked perfectly
It should also be worth noting here for people that find this thread, the desktop application converted the videos a lot slower then my honor 8 smart phone.... i mean like 3 or 4 times slow and only one at a time. (my pc, being an i7 6700 with 16gb ram and a gtx 1080, should of had my phone dead to rights lol)
@mrgreaper
Normally a good video cut software has to render only the few frames between two parts of video. But all the costless software i know, will render the whole video again! This is absolutely unusable to save time!

you could test PowerDirector 15 of Cyberlink or VideoStich. Both are able to edit 360° video streams. You can get trials of both software!

Video with flashlight?

Hi guys,
Can you do a quick test on your Pixel 3a for me please?
Everytime I try to record a video with light on, the device cut off the light very quickly. It's impossible for my Pixel 3a to record a video with light more than 2-10 minutes.
I thought it was normal, but.. I am worried because I try to do that just in standard video mode at 1080p/30fps (not even 60fps or 4K), and I tested on another device (Nokia 6.1 Android One) and it can record a 1080p video with flashlight with no limit, like forever...
So, can someone just test that for me please? Like just put the light on in camera, record a video and put the device on your desk face down and wait if the flashlight turn off? It's not a long test, it should turn off very quickly (if my device doesn't have a hardware issue...)
Thanks again guys! :good:
In my 3a XL in 4k 30fps after 2 min led turn off and message "warning device is to hot" or somehthing like that
Same result as bioly87 with me Pixel 3a shooting at 1080P. It'll shut the LED flash off with a heat warning.
So, good news for me. Not only my device.
But bad news for us... Why Google allows us to use the light if it turn off just after. When other phones can do it with no limit... It's weird.
Anyways thank you guys for doing the test.

HELP needed with Note 10. GPS accuracy issue, overheating whilst using Android Auto.

Hi
I've tried to find relevant info here but have failed...
Right were do I start?
I use Samsung Note 10 heavily for:
Android Auto
-Navigation (Google and Waze)
-Spotify
-Youtube Downloader (to play sound in the back ground)
-phone calls
GPS status app installed with A-GPS data updated.
Phone screen is always on with Courier Exchange app that uses GPS location etc
1. Main issue I get is GPS location accuracy whilst in big cities with Google maps (Waze is similar) , during navigation my position is shown with a delay and very often drive past the street I suppose to turn in or my position jumps to a street next to. After a stop for lets say 5-10 min if I start to drive again it takes about 60 sec until it picks up my location correctly again. Navigation works fine on motorways and in small towns.
I do use magnetic phone holder (the one that goes into a vent and with metal plate sicked onto a back of the phone) - could this be the issue? (never had that problem on Sony Xperia One) . Compass is calibrated and seems to be working correctly.
Phone additional Google accuracy settings (WiFi) needs to be on as this is requirement of CourierExchange app.
2. Second issue I get is phone overheating and slowing down dramatically.
As I've mentioned before I use Android Auto all the time ( for about 8-10hrs a day) , phone is charging constantly (fast charge off) and I do use Spotify / Youtube Mate to listen to music in the background. Had to switch off screen animation to speed the phone up.
I do have "Power mode" switched off for maximum performance. Phone gets very hot from time to time and tend to slow down, google maps scrolling on the vans unit slows down. Sometimes phone doesn't react on touch too.
Am I lacking the RAM here? Is the constant charging an issue (phone needs to be connected via USBcable to use Android Auto). My vent where the phone is located is closed so no hot air blows on the phone directly.
Is the phone simply too slow what I do or there's an Issue whit the phone? Phone is 3 weeks old and don't have many apps installed on it..
I did use Sony Xperia One (with magnetic phone holder in exactly same spot) before and due to its size and lack of dual sim option have decided to go for Note 10 (not 10+ which is too big). Sony worked so much faster and absolutely no issue with GPS between high buildings. Also I'm a little worried about lack of battery care by Samsung (or am I wrong?) as I constantly charge phone, Sony here was learning my habits and after some time didn't allow the phone to be fully charged whilst using Android Auto - had Xperia XZ1 Compact before and this one was also faster then Note 10 and after 2 years of heavy use battery is like new....
Can anyone help me resolve above issues? I still have the Sony One and thinking of getting rid of Samsung if the issues continue - this is costing me money.
For any help and advise what to do I will be very grateful.
I also experience the GPS issues you explain. Sitting still at a stop light and suddenly it's recalculating because I'm suddenly on a side street 500' away. I've never noticed any heat issue while using AA. I do not use any kind of mount. Also, my wifi calling often fails due to location unavailable error.
